    The Key to a Moist Meatloaf

    One of the biggest mistakes people make with meatloaf is using lean ground beef. You need some fat for flavor and texture, so an 80/20 mix (80% lean meat, 20% fat) is ideal. Another secret? Don’t overwork the meat. Mix it just until combined—handling it too much makes the loaf tough.

    Binding ingredients also play a crucial role. Instead of just breadcrumbs, I use a combination of soft bread soaked in milk. This adds moisture and creates a tender bite. A generous amount of sautéed onions, garlic, and seasonings also ensures the meatloaf is never bland.

    The Best Glaze for Meatloaf

    A good meatloaf deserves a bold, flavorful glaze. A mix of ketchup, brown sugar, and Dijon mustard gives the perfect balance of sweet, tangy, and savory. Brushing it on in layers while the meatloaf bakes helps build a thick, glossy coating that caramelizes beautifully.

    How to Keep Meatloaf from Falling Apart

    Ever sliced into meatloaf only to have it crumble? That usually happens when there’s not enough binder. Eggs and breadcrumbs (or soaked bread) help hold everything together. Letting the meatloaf rest for 10 minutes before slicing also prevents it from falling apart—this allows the juices to redistribute, making every bite flavorful and moist.

    What to Serve with Meatloaf

    Meatloaf is incredibly versatile and pairs well with classic comfort sides. Creamy mashed potatoes, roasted veggies, or a crisp green salad are all great options. If you want to shake things up, try serving slices of meatloaf on toasted bread with melted cheese for a next-level sandwich.
